The Ansis Publications requires authors to include a data availability statement in any articles that report results derived from research data. The provision of a data availability statement will be verified as a condition of publication.
Data availability statements can provide information on where the data supporting the results reported in the article can be found including, where applicable, hyperlinks to publicly archived datasets analysed or generated during the study.
Data availability statements chosen on the submission form will take one of the following forms:
Authors are required to provide Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) for all publicly available datasets and/or code. If any datasets have an embargo period before public release, authors must specify this period.
For unstructured repositories like Figshare or Dryad, these are acceptable alternatives for dataset deposition. Authors must also ensure that data is made available to any reader upon reasonable request.
Additionally, source code for any specialized scripts or programs necessary for result reproduction must be deposited in a public repository (e.g. GitHub), or uploaded as supplementary material.
